Lukas Podolski receives 'remarkable offer' from China The £60m former Blues star was welcomed with flowers at the airport in Chinas largest city today. Both Chelsea and Arsenal are seeking more cover at left-back, and Rodriguez has shown up well in scouting reports this season. Both Jurgen Klopp and Mauricio Pochettino have scouted the winger, receiving glowing reports that Murphy is a player with bags of potential. With Juan Mata, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Wayne Rooney, Anthony Martial, Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford — as well the seldom utilised Ashley Young — Mourinho has ample options. Conte looked at the defender last season when arrived but the club prioritised deals for David Luiz, Alonso and NGolo Kante. N’Zonzi’s apparent happiness with his lot at the Sanchez Pizjuan stadium has not put off Manchester City and Juventus who are both keen on the big midfielder. The transfer would be the third joint highest in world football, equalling the £80m deal that brought Ronaldo to Real Madrid from Man Utd in 2009. He could be brought in as Santi Cazorla’s replacement if he chooses to leave the Emirates. He is in talks with Juventus over a new contract, which he is expected to sign — but only to increase his price. Manchester United duo Morgan Schneiderlin and Memphis Depay and Burnleys former? Old Trafford centre-back Michael Keane are more realistic options.
